Quick Summary
If your child's imagination runs wild at bedtime, this short, 860-word adventure is a perfect pick. After Anna falls asleep she finds herself soaring over her favorite park, which has turned into a jungle of crocodiles, monkeys, and a friendly lion who leads her to a hidden waterfall. The story's dreamy, colorful scenes make it easy to picture the secret spot, and the gentle humor of talking animals keeps the tone light even when a lion appears. It's especially good for kids who love animal adventures and for early readers looking for a quick chapter-like picture book that doesn't overwhelm. Parents will appreciate that the scary-looking creatures are all friendly, and the only tension comes from the excitement of a night-time flight.
